SAT RangeN/A
ACT RangeN/A
Average GPA2.90
Acceptance Rate62.3%

Stillman’s 62% acceptance rate and 2.90 average GPA suggest admission may be realistic if your transcript is in range, so use test-optional strategically rather than reflexively. Submit SAT or ACT scores only if they strengthen your academic profile, and spend equal time checking support, advising, and affordability because staying on track matters here.

Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Stillman, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes. Stillman’s earliest deadline is Early Decision on July 1, so no fall retake will arrive in time for that plan; if you apply later, an October retake should still be back before the December 1 Early Action deadline.
